Service & Testing

We provide service and testing for mini cranes, vacuum lifters and other miscellaneous lifting equipment as per manufacturers guidelines, and to meet with the lifting operations of lifting equipment regulations 1998 (LOLER).

The most important part of operating any equipment is safety. LOLER regulations place duties on people and companies who own, operate or have control over lifting equipment. This includes all businesses and organisations whose employees use lifting equipment, whether owned by them or not.

All lifting operations involving lifting equipment must be properly planned by a competent person, appropriately supervised and carried out in a safe manner. We at a mini crane hire fully support and action this statement, right to the point that we offer servicing and testing for lifting equipment as above listed to ensure others are meeting with the safest standards of lifting.

LOLER also requires that all equipment used for lifting is fit for purpose, appropriate for the task, suitably marked and, in many cases, subject to statutory periodic 'thorough examination'. Records are kept of all thorough examinations and any defects found are reported to both the person responsible for the equipment and the relevant enforcing authority

LOLER is supported by the Safe use of lifting equipment: Approved Code of Practice (ACOP) and additional free guidance from HSE.
